Yield:7588-36-5 100%

Reaction Conditions:

Stage #1: 5-Methoxy-2-methylindole-3-acetic acidwith bis-(2-oxo-3-oxazolidinyl)phosphoryl chloride;triethylamine in dichloromethane at 20; for 0.0833333 h;
Stage #2: methanol in dichloromethane at 20;

Steps:

General Procedure A_variant1:

General procedure: A reaction mixture containing the indoleacetic acid derivative (1 equivalent) and BOP-Cl (1 equivalent) in 3 mL/mmol of anhydrous CH2Cl2 is treated with triethylamine (2 equivalents) and aged at ambient temperature for 5 min. The mixture is combined with anhydrous methanol (0.14 mL/mmol) and then continuously stirred overnight at room temperature. Following dilution with dichloromethane (12 mL/mmol), the organic solution is washed with water (2x6 mL/mmol), dried over Na2SO4, and filtered. The organic filtrate is collected and concentrated in vacuo and the crude ester is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (ethyl acetate/hexane gradient) to afford the title compound at first as viscous yellow oil, which stably crystallizes upon seeding and subsequent cold storage.
